The MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the Metropolitan College offers a comprehensive combination of theory and practice. Adapted to the needs of Greek industry and development, it provides the fundamental scientific knowledge and trains students in terms of its successful application, so that they can be in high-demand in the labour market.
The Electrical and Electronic Engineer is the professional engineer who deals with the analysis, design and manufacturing of all kinds of electrical and electronic systems at the level of non-stationary machinery or installations.
More specifically, the Electrical Engineer deals with problems related to large-scale electrical systems, such as power transmission, electrical installations and control systems of electrical machinery. The closely related science of Electronic Engineering examines issues related to electronics systems; for example, microprocessors, navigation and automation systems.
These two disciplines are at the core of the so-called fifth industrial revolution. Thus, graduates are in high-demand in both the domestic and the international labour market.
In line with the standards of the collaborating British University – University of East London, the BEng (Hons) / MEng course in Electrical and Electronic Engineering is highly participatory. Furthermore, it includes mandatory laboratory modules, which take place in the fully equipped, state-of-the-art lab facilities of the Metropolitan College.
Upon completion of the 5-year study, the course’s graduates obtain both an undergraduate and a postgraduate degree in the science of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, in the same manner as in the respective courses of Greek and European Engineering Faculties.
